Valheim Merchant Locations and Inventory Guide: Haldor, Hildir, and the Bog Witch
Valheim's challenging world is made slightly less daunting by the presence of helpful merchants. This guide details the locations and inventories of the three merchants: Haldor (Black Forest), Hildir (Meadows), and the Bog Witch (Swamp). Finding them can be tricky due to procedural generation, but this guide offers strategies to locate each.
How to Find Haldor (Black Forest Merchant)
Haldor, residing in the Black Forest, is often the easiest merchant to find, potentially spawning within 1500m of the world center. He's frequently near Elder spawn points (often identifiable by glowing ruins in Burial Chambers). However, for a more efficient search, utilize the Valheim World Generator (created by wd40bomber7) to pinpoint his exact location using your world seed. Once located, build a portal for easy access. Trade with Haldor using gold, readily obtained from dungeons and selling gems.

How to Find Hildir (Meadows Merchant)
Hildir, located in the Meadows, is harder to find than Haldor, typically spawning further from the world center (3000-5100m radius). The Valheim World Generator is again recommended. Alternatively, systematically search Meadows within the specified radius (spawn points are roughly 1000m apart). A T-shirt icon appears on the map when you're within 300-400m. Build a portal once found. Hildir offers clothing with stamina reduction buffs and unique quests. Completing these quests, involving various biomes and mini-bosses, unlocks additional inventory.

How to Find the Bog Witch (Swamp Merchant)
The Bog Witch, found in the treacherous Swamp biome (3000-8000m from the world center), is the most challenging merchant to locate. The Valheim World Generator is highly recommended. Look for her Cauldron icon on the map as you approach. She offers unique items for cooking and mead crafting.
